Vegan Meal Programs in the US – Business is Booming in 2017

Vegan Meal Delivery Companies in the US Are Booming

Many people are interested in healthy, plant-based eating but simply do not have the time to shop and cook there meals. If budgets permit, thankfully there now are a variety of options available to US residents for vegan meal delivery. There are companies that offer delivery of pre-made frozen or fresh food and others who send fresh ingredients for cooking to their customers. This article will summarize these (along with comments from some that this blogger has tried). List prepared in early 2017.

These are very yummy vegan meals delivered frozen from an outfit in the Los Angeles area. I was impressed by almost everything I tried. The only criticism for me was that most of the standard plan food had tofu and there was a moderate amount of flour in some items (both of which I try to limit). However, if you get them a-la-carte, then you can choose your food to your taste. They routinely offer 10 and 20% off coupons for your first order.

Fresh ‘N Lean does have a good selection and their customer service is good. However, the meals I tried were not my favorites. One had only about 150 calories which just wasn’t sufficient for me. However, I would try them again and order other meals. These are shipped in vacuum-packed cool packs, not frozen.

Healthy and delicious, soy and gluten free, plant-based meals prepared with organic ingredients. No cooking required. Choose either a la carte or a weekly mean plan. These really look delicious – anxious to give them a try.

Started in 2009 at the request of nutrition counseling clients, this company had its roots in macrobiotic cuisine. Now Macro-Mediterranean Diet takes the most successful elements of traditional diets from around the world, and incorporates them into a flavorful, plant-based, whole-foods vegan diet. In the Boston area (local delivery) or nationwide. Looks very good!

This is Brendon Braizer’s vegan food delivery service, created with vegan athletes in mind. All ingredients are organic, and non-GMO, with no additives or preservatives. It is slightly more expensive than other but the meals really look amazing.

– hearty meals based on dietary suggestions of Dr. Campbells, Esselstyn, and McDougall. They ship frozen whole plant based (vegan) meals around the country. Meals are ready made – produced without animal products, oils or nuts and are gluten free.

A creation of Lindsay Nixon’s (the Happy Herbivore), this is a service that provides meal plans and recipes for healthy plant-based meals each week. Requires both shopping and cooking but many people rave about this. Meals are low/no oil and good for weight loss.
